520 1 $a"Rulin waishi was both a product of cultural transformation in late imperial China and one of the most powerful responses by a Confucian intellectual to it. Its ironic portraits of the literati and their predicament provide a unique perspective on a number of contemporary academic disputes over eighteenth-century culture and intellectual discourse. The book explores a variety of literary and nonliterary texts and addresses a wide range of issues of interest to students not only of Chinese literature but also of Chinese thought, religion, and history."--BOOK JACKET.
